The New Traveller

I don't have a copy, but I have been following the dicussions about it.

The book/game probably won't get here to Australia for another six months
(sounds pessimistic I admit, but I am probably right), but I was wondering
about a couple of things in the game.

1) Does the new traveller touch on computers at all (I mean apart
from the viris. Like does it give modern day stats to hand computers
etc)

2) Are the old design rules compatible (ie for vehicles). I know the
book does not have design tables, but can you make assumptions enough
on the new technology to be able to adapt old designs ?

3) The new book will cost 60$ Australian I guess, which is roughly
40$ in American currency. Is it worth it ???????

4) Are there any 'how to adapt' guidlines for old to new traveller. I mean
serious well thought out ones, unlike T2000 1 too T2000 mk 2 was (IMHO).

I guess thats about it.

Thanks alot (in advance)
